If your wanting to to pick finance for "everyday finance knowledge" then accounting already does that for you, it's the most useful major in terms of teaching you how to analyse financial statements etc., which really is what happens when you go out and find jobs in commerce, it's all about the financials, anyone can be taught a formula or two on the spot, but having that analytical mindset from accounting is great.

To be completely honest, a finance major can be learnt pretty easily outside of University in terms of knowledge. You don't really learn any critical skills in Finance.

Do accounting bbe
